SILVER&FIT AND SILVERSNEAKERS®

Who knew fitness could be so much fun? The Y is a proud partner with both SilverSneakers® and Silver&Fit fitness programs. Classes, taught by certified instructors, typically involve the use of hand-held weights, elastic tubing with handles, and a small exercise ball. In some classes, a chair may be available for seating or additional support.

Many leading health plans offer SilverSneakers® or Silver&Fit to their members. Just take your membership or health plan identification card to any of our 13 YMCA of Greater Cincinnati locations, and we’ll check your eligibility for the fitness program at the Y and get you started. Our active older adults enjoy numerous outings, luncheons, and other social opportunities.

Lockers are provided for your convenience at all YMCA of Greater Cincinnati locations. Lockers are for day use by members and guests. It is important to secure your personal belongings by bringing your own lock and removing it at the end of each visit. Items cannot be left overnight, unless you have rented the locker. Check with your local YMCA branch to see if locker rentals are available. We recommend that you not bring valuables into the facility; the Y is not responsible for lost or stolen items.

Guests are permitted to use the YMCA a maximum of three times each year.
